Akaliko Records | Invisible Boundaries
The film explores the creative domain of the Bangladeshi youth, how they feel about this so-called 'unconventional' careers, their struggles, and their aspirations through the eyes of six creative changemakers from diverse backgrounds and activity. The film is backed by a short but rich historical context of Bangladesh and links it with the transitional modern times. The film wants to inspire and make the youth of Bangladesh think so that they can follow their passion and stand strong when in doubt.

Dhaka Art Summit | Nothing is as far as it seems
Quite often for us, electronic music acts as the medium that connects us to the many diversities of Bangladeshi music forms. It allows us to close our distances from Bangladesh's historic narratives with a remarkable optimism for the sounds of our future, and thereby recognizes that neither the past nor the future are "as far they may have seemed". This selection of works acts as an example of the evolving sound of a developing megacity as such as Dhaka - a result of globalization, returning prosperity, re-imagined identities - birthed from digital machines in a crammed up geographic boundary. Different sounds, promising ideas, uncanny influences, and experiences somehow shape how we look back at our history and what we expect of our near future. Nothing is as far as it seems because everything is connected and in connected-ness we prevail. These artists are represented by Akaliko Records and were discovered through Dhaka Electronica Scene.
